A RECORD LABEL, FOUNDED BY MUSICIANS

Founded by Troy Nelson and Ben Jenkins, Killroom Records is an indie record label, based in Seattle, WA.

The Stranger: What inspired you guys to start this get-poor-slow scheme and what are your goals with Killroom?Troy Nelson: "We were just so sick of having good ideas, so we figured we'd start a label! Ben and I have been friends for over a decade and we've both had many jobs in this strange world of music. We've toyed with the idea for years, but now we both feel ready to do this. There are so many bands that want and need help, and they deserve to be heard. So that's one of our goals—to give more exposure to bands we feel should be heard by more than a handful of people."
